Then it generates the offset as seconds. But I probably didn't have a
test case that generated a large number of negative seconds offset.
See the code in native/jni/java-util/java_util_VMTimeZone.c or
vm/reference/java/util/VMTimeZone.java:
// Turn into hours if possible.
if (gmt_offset % 3600 == 0)
gmt_offset /= 3600;
As VMTimeZone.getDefaultTimeZoneId() explains:
The
* GMT offset can be in seconds, or where it is evenly divisible by
* 3600, then it can be in hours. The offset must be the time to
* add to the local time to get GMT.
Cheers,
Mark
